Review of Modern Times (1936) by Jeremy B — 17 Oct 2008
The first twenty or so minutes are priceless, both as comedy and as critique. After that, the film gets a little more hit-or-miss -- Chaplin is undeniably one of the great physical comics of the 20th century, but for every great gag sequence here there's another that's just so-so.
